My Magic Age

Senior Dylan and I carefully checked the drawing and assembly of these adamantine rune panels on the five-masted sailboat. If it was not an assembled magic pattern array, we would only check the drawing of the magic pattern array on a single rune board. , it can be said that the drawing of these metal rune plates is quite good.

But this inscriptionist obviously ignored the most difficult problem to overcome in the assembled magic pattern array, which is that during the assembly process, the magic intersecting lines between the various rune boards are more or less misaligned. This can be said to be the most important component of the assembled magic pattern array. Turning over Senior Dylan's design drawings, the detailed coordinate points connected by each magic intersecting line are clearly marked on it.

This inscriptionist obviously did not take this detail seriously. Although these magic intersecting lines were barely connected together, overall the connection was not so smooth. It seems that this is what caused the entire magic pattern on the entire five-masted sailing ship. The main reason why the magic circle cannot function properly.

I remember that when Scholar Yerkes and I were making the combined magic-patterned shoulder armor for Theresa's Rock Golem at the Junior War Magic Academy, we had repeatedly discussed this matter, and Scholar Yerkes later also Several papers related to it have been published in magic newspapers.

At that time, Scholar Yerkes was not as well-known in the imperial capital as he is now, and almost no one knew him.

But when it comes to the combined magic pattern array, Yerkes scholars still have some unique insights into it.

"It turns out that you have been busy with this for the past few months." I stood on the deck of the five-masted sailboat, holding the side of the ship with both hands, looking at the sparkling golden lake in the distance, and said to Senior Dylan.

"Yes!" Senior Dylan said casually beside me.

A female assistant tied the cape on Senior Dylan. He had lost a lot of weight recently, probably due to overwork.

Senior Dylan told me: "After my paper was published, the project on the mobile magic teleportation array was announced. The attitude of the Astrologers' Union was also very positive, so the initial investment was sufficient. Astrologers The trade union has always been very generous with this kind of technological innovation in teleportation magic.”

He reached out and patted the thick side of the ship, and said: "And these sea ships are just a preliminary idea. After all, these sea ships can sail in the vast sea. According to the meaning of the big shots above, it is best to be able to transmit mobile magic." Move the formation to the magic airship."

"Oh, they really dare to think about it!" I took a deep breath and said with some surprise.

If you think about it carefully, this proposal still has some feasibility.

I couldn't help but ask Senior Dylan: "Back then, they bought me thirty fishskin hoods. Did they make a special trip to thank me for this?"

Senior Dylan said: "This doesn't seem to be true. As far as I know, it was the vice-president of our union who has divination skills who decided that your fishskin hood is worth the money."

…

When Scholar Yerkes' magic caravan arrived at the dock, it was already approaching dusk.

The setting sun peeked out from the gray clouds, sandwiched between the clouds and the top of Mazzaro Mountain, like a flat egg yolk after a broken eggshell. The light became a little dim, but it still illuminated the Weiyang Lake Pier. The shadows of the ten five-masted sailing ships were long.

The boatmen hung the lanterns on the wooden frames, and the lanterns in the illuminated areas lit up one after another. Buckets of steaming broth and pieces of golden and crispy wheat cakes were poured out. After being carried to the construction site, the boatmen sat around and ate directly on the dock. At the request of Senior Dylan, they had to remove all the fine gold rune panels from a five-masted sailboat before dawn.

The early spring evening breeze carried a biting chill. After Scholar Yerkes came up with his assistant, Senior Dylan and I took him directly to inspect these fine gold rune boards on site.

Scholar Yerkes said nothing at first. He held the design drawing in his hand, with five low-light flares floating behind him, and carefully compared the drawings on it.

He did not draw a hasty conclusion, but inspected more than ten places in succession. Every time he visited, his brows furrowed deeply. He groped for the magic patterns on the fine gold rune board with his hands, and then looked at them again. With the help of his assistant, he climbed onto the bow of the five-masted sailing ship with difficulty.

After walking in such a circle, his body seemed to be overwhelmed, and a layer of sweat formed on his forehead. He took out a handkerchief and wiped his face.

Yerkes stood on the deck to calm down his breath, then rubbed his shoulders and said, "I guess I haven't been active for too long. I'm so physically weak that I can't even climb on the boat. Hey!"

I carried a barrel over the side of the ship and asked Scholar Yerkes to sit down and rest.

Scholar Yerkes sighed softly and said with great regret: "I have looked at ten parts of the rune plate magic pattern area, and the situation is not optimistic."

Senior Dylan asked the Yerkes scholar, “Isn’t there a remedy?”

Scholar Yerkes shook his head slightly, and then said: "The producer does not have any experience in drawing combined magic pattern arrays. It can be said that these magic pattern arrays look very exquisite. The magic patterns on the single rune board The lines are very smooth, but after splicing, they are almost All the intersecting lines are out of shape, making it impossible to repair these adamantine rune boards. When making such a large combined magic pattern array, you should ask the inscription masters to draw some small combined magic pattern arrays. , let them get familiar with it first.”

"Are you saying that these adamantine rune boards have no value anymore?" I asked.

"Yes, almost all the rune boards on this ship need to be replaced. As for how to deal with these rune boards, my suggestion is to recast them." Scholar Yerkes said with certainty.

Scholar Yerkes sentenced the adamantine rune boards on these ships to death, and Senior Dylan said nothing more.

The three of us got off the boat and left the dock.

Sitting on the magic caravan, Senior Dylan said to me sincerely: "Even if Jijia is not involved in this bet, I still want to ask you to come and help me. The last deadline left for me by His Majesty Charles is only more than a month. I don’t think anyone else can complete such a redrawing task except you.”

"Jijia, help me, this matter is really important to me." Senior Dylan said.

I nodded.

Then he said to me: "I will find a way to get the president of the Astrologers' Guild to come forward and ask the president of the Royal Academy of Magic for a month's leave."

Scholar Yerkes and I looked at each other, and Scholar Yerkes sighed and said, "I can stop all my magic pattern construction plans for the time being, but it's best to stick to the magic class."

"Tonight, I will go back to the Astrologer's Guild to make the rune board overnight. After all, I am already familiar with many things. Even if there are slight changes, I can handle it." I said to Senior Dylan: "Let's see how many chapters of fine gold rune boards I can draw in one night."

Senior Dylan scratched his disheveled hair and said, "That's good, but I'm afraid your body won't be able to bear it!"

While Scholar Yerkes and Senior Dylan were discussing the combined magic pattern array on the magic caravan, I asked the magic caravan to take a detour to the rune board workshop to gather the fire gathering skills of the past two days. The 'Magic Rune Board' and the 'Miniature Tornado' Magic Rune Board were handed over to Murray, and then the magic caravan drove back to the Astrologer's Guild.

Scholar Yerkes is purely a magic theorist. He has little practical experience, but he can talk to Senior Dylan with his rich theoretical knowledge.

…

I stayed up all night in the magic laboratory of Senior Astrologer Guild Dylan.

Probably because I am extremely familiar with these drawings, I hardly need to make any preparations before drawing. I directly draw the magic pattern array on the drawings on the rune board quickly. Senior Dylan’s magic test bench is very large. I almost squatted on the rune board and drew magic lines on it.

To be honest, drawing this kind of adamantine rune plate is much easier than making a magic pattern structure.

When a faint white fish belly appeared on the horizon, I stopped the magic engraving pen in my hand and asked the magic assistant beside me who was holding the magic ink for me: "How many fine gold rune tablets have I drawn?"

The magic assistant quickly ran to the pile of magic rune boards drawn aside, counted them carefully, and said to me in surprise: "Fifty-three!"

I nodded with satisfaction. It seemed that the drawing speed was quite fast. I was able to draw fifty-three of this large magic rune board in one go. I didn't expect that I could draw so many pictures.

So, I made a hasty calculation in my mind. At this speed, it would only take me more than twenty days to complete the drawing task of a complete set of mobile magic teleportation arrays.

Putting the magic engraving pen back on the pen holder, he stretched out and saw Senior Dylan holding a pile of magic parchment drawings and sleeping soundly on the sofa in the rest area. He was only covered with a blanket, so he asked the person next to him. Magician's Assistant: "Why don't you let him lie on the bed for a while."

There is a small bed in the corner of Senior Dylan's magic laboratory, which is more comfortable than lying on the sofa anyway.

The magic assistant explained in a low voice with a look of helplessness: "Scholar Dylan has been up all night in the past few days. It is rare that he fell asleep today. We dare not disturb him. If we lift him to the bed at this time, he will probably wake up." It’s hard to get such a chance to sleep soundly.”

I said to the magic assistant: "Then let him sleep for a while. When he wakes up, tell him for me that I will go to the Royal Academy of Magic to take classes and come back in the afternoon."

The magic assistant immediately nodded in agreement and said, "I'll call a magic caravan for you."

I took a nap in the magic caravan for a while, holding on to my tiredness and meditating in the car, until the magic caravan stopped at the entrance of the Royal Academy of Magic. The empty magic pool was refilled with magic power, and my spirit became very full.

I pushed open the compartment door and stepped out. The morning sun had already climbed to the top of Mount Mazzaro, letting the first rays of sunshine fill the entire imperial capital.

There are already some magic students on the grass meditating in front of the rising sun.

The magic students in the Royal Academy of Magic are selected from the best magic apprentices in junior magic academies from various places. These magic students are all young people known as magic geniuses in the local magic academies. They not only possess extremely high magic talents, They are also very diligent, and many magic students have the habit of doing morning exercises.

I walked through these magic students. I haven't tried to get up so early in a long time since I recently entered the second grade.

After returning to the dormitory, I took a shower and changed into a magic robe. At this time, I was completely sleepless. Seeing that it was still early for class, I opened the portal to Xinliu Valley in the bathroom and walked away. Enter Xinliu Valley.

Catalina has been in the Hierro plane for several days, and I plan to bring her back from the Hierro plane this time.

She went to the Yello plane with the blueprint of the town of Trum. I calculated the time and she should have handed the blueprint to Bernd three days ago.

When I arrived at the room of the hotel opened by Mr. Billy, I happened to see Catalina sitting quietly by the window of the hotel room looking out at the rain.

She saw me stepping out of the portal and smiled at me gently.
